Okay . . . I’m talking real memories here. GOOGLE doesn’t count for a memory, just a fact checker or image retriever.
PORTABLE MUSIC PLAYERS are now as small as binder clips and you can carry hundreds of songs on them, play it all day long and never worry about the battery going dead unexpectedly.
I remember my first portable music player. It was called a transistor radio. It was about as big as a breadbox, required 8 or 10 “D” size batteries that would drain and die after about 2 hours of ON time (if that). It had scratchy monaural single speaker sound that would fade in and out depending on which direction you were standing, and the MOST you could ever HOPE for was to tune in 1 of the 2 stations possible on the monster. Oh, the freedom of movement that afforded us.
